My great-grandfather studied for César Franck in Paris in the 1880s! 🙂

Franck's soul is weeping and so am I. Something deep is talking to me. So beautiful is the magic of music.

Registration is exquisite. The phrasing and interpretation, exceptional. I am 88 years old and have played this all my life. This rendition is my favorite! Thank you!

Magnifique. Les habitués du chapelet de KTO auront reconnu le générique... Pensées à mes grands-parents !

Dieses Stück ist etwas ganz besonderes . Es berührt mich sehr. Wirklich mit tiefen Gefühl gespielt und dass noch auf meiner Lieblingsorgel in meiner Heimatstadt. Danke fürs teilen.

[@sahzamila]

sehr sehr schön bravo - bin gerade selber am üben 🤩

[@mccxcccx7793]

The termpo at which the organist plays this piece is also just right. The worst thing one can do is play this music at a tempo that is much too fast. especially for a large building with live accustics.

Kein einzig langweilender Ton. Selten höre ich das von meinen Organisten-Kollegen. Reiner Genuß. Danke, Matthias, danke!

[@davidbenjamin4798]

Exceptional composition, coupled with outstanding interpretation and recording make for unforgettable music.

This is to my ears one of the finest performances of this composition on KZbin. Vielen Dank!

Das stimmt vollkommen: " Franck is considered by many the greatest composer of organ music after Bach. His works were some of the finest organ pieces to come from France in over a century, and laid the groundwork for the French symphonic organ style." -wikipedia

Something about an instrument so large it takes a cathedral to hold it. Beautiful, simply beautiful.

[@ulrichsteiger757]

[@charlottewhyte9804]

I,m weeping all through this ,oh man too much.

[@simf7563]

Tolle Interpretation! Ich selbst habe das Stück vor kurzem erst im Studium gemacht, und es zT sehr unterschiedlich gespielt. Umso mehr freut es mich, wenn man auf Aufnahmen trifft, mit denen man übereinstimmt :)

[@teunvandesteeg7836]

Ich liebe es zu sagen, die Musik ist himmlisch und Sie spielen es fast himmlisch. Ich meine können wir spielen wie im Himmel?
